Jeremiah 3:19-21
Common English Bible
19 I thought to myself, How wonderful it would be
to treat you like children
and give you a beautiful land,
an inheritance unrivaled among the nations.
And I thought, You will call me father,
and you won’t turn away from me.
20 But as a woman betrays her lover,
so you, people of Israel, have betrayed me,
declares the Lord.
21 A voice is heard on the well-traveled paths;[a]
it’s the crying and pleading of the people of Israel,
who have lost their way
and forgotten the Lord their God.
